BREAKING: NBC News just published an internal memo showing national Republicans in a panic after Graham Platner won the Democratic primary in Maine to take on Susan Collins.
The memo says the quiet part out loud: Graham can win. And Republicans know it.
The Bangor Daily News reports that "Collins-aligned Republican groups are flooding tens of millions of dollars into Maine." The attack ads are already running.
The memo shows Republicans' fear that Platner can defeat Susan Collins and lays out a plan to try to destroy him with attacks, defend Collins, and flood the state with money.
But the most telling thing is that it lays out why their billionaire donors should be panicking: "His platform aligns directly with national progressives, featuring: Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, Universal Basic Income, government-funded universal childcare, free college."
Republicans know Maine could decide Senate control. They know Graham is leading. They know his economic message is powerful. And they know that if they do not bury him under attack ads fast, Susan Collins could lose.
